My standard distance in this scene is 150 units back.
In this scene, I think it's close to 1unit=1inch.

Is the spherical even needed? I really don't know what I'm doing in

spherical is there is because it was in that scene I copied it from.

I've read the documentation over and over but it's greek to me.
